The headings at the top all link to Danish sites. Is this some oversight or bizarre revenge for the Mohammed cartoon controversy? Dabbler21:15, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm terrible sorry, it was because I copied the background thing from the Danish portal :-) I'll fix it immediately -- Snailwalker |talk21:43, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This article was nominated for a speedy as patent nonsense. It isn't patent nonsense but a proposal for Assyrian Regional Government. It has three internal links going to it. I have listed for Prod so as to give five days for someone to work on it. I would be grateful for any advice as to whether it could be made into a decent article.
